The Little Inn was ideal for our quick beach fix. Walk to the beach or the bay. Walking distance to many restaurants (a little noisy during the late evenings but no more than any hotel on the beach). The staff was very helpful with dinner suggestions and on site parking was a blessing for a busy beach.
